Aphid Observations

We are so excited to welcome aphids into our classroom as part of our grant from Merck Pharmaceutical. The aphids are currently feeding on the broad bean plants we raised for them from seeds. The aphids will eventually serve as the food source for our ladybugs.   We will transfer them to the ladybug habitats once the ladybugs reach the adult stage!  Our 1R scientists love observing these amazing insects.
